Not too much beside Gamingforce. Everything else pales in comparison.

I tend to hoard webcomics, though, and last.fm has been quite addicting at times.

I have three simple ones:

1. Gamingforce
2. Web Comics
3. Digg.com

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

I agree, some of these are really funny.. I made a thread about them in the Laughs and Games a few weeks ago.

I guess my addictions would be gamingforce.. and playing helicopter.

I was speaking idiomatically.

Other than Gamingforce I mainly flip through my webcomic lineup and check up on news at RPGamer.com. I mess around with Facebook quite a bit too, but I never really do much with it outside of talking to a couple of friends.

GFF because it's the first thing I check when I go on the net each day 8-|
and then after that the Jump Ultimate Stars message board on gamefaqs since I'm still addicted to the game and am looking for people to face constantly in my spare (and busy) time.

Everything else I check routinely out of habit, but once in a while, I'll spend a long time reading movie spoilers at www.themoviespoiler.com or look at random rpg wiki entries at wikipedia, or game reviews at gamespot, as well as the clearly biased reader reviews of gamefaqs, to at least have a faint idea of the games I should have but never played.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

1. Slashdot (and sometimes Digg)
2. Webcomics, such as penny arcade, questionable content, dinosaur comics, white ninja, and others.
3. Email. Email. email.
4. Netflix (rating movies I've seen, adding more movies to my queue, checking to see if they've added the streaming option to my account yet...)
5. Facebook (and to a lesser extent, myspace)
6. General news
7. Car news
8. Finance news
9. Wikipedia
10. techbargains.com

News, email, check gamespot or ign if anything groundbreaking happened while I was asleep, webcomics for a good laugh if its a good day, otherwise just a chuckle. Then its off to whatever comes to my mind. Sometimes its GFF, maybe 4chan, or Wikipedia. Maybe even the World of warcraft forums for a good laugh at some stupid post, which on the WoW forums there is bound to be one.

My internet time, which happens to be a lot, is usually spent here on GFF, Oink looking for new music, checking out some webcomics or messaging and exchanging music with my friends and neighbors on Last.fm.

Most times though, when I'm home, I'm on IRC with my chat co-conspirators twirling my mustache and plotting up plans to ruin GFF, because that's how ballas roll.

1. Gamingforce
2. Gmail
3. Gamerankings/Gamespy
4. The Magic Box (gaming site)
5. Rightstuf
6. Fappable Material
7. Best Buy LOL

This is usually the order that I visit, starting off with any GFF news and tidbits. I'm surprise I check GFF even before my personal mail. And some how I save the "best" for last. Okay that was bad.

The sequence is usually something like this…

Gotlurk.net (latest manga chapters)
Email
GFF
TheWiikly.com: The Cycle Theory piece sucked me in. I think every gamer would appreciate this article, but there’s been nothing of that caliber since. I just check in hope.

I really need to broaden my horizon. Currently, this is my list.

news.yahoo.com - I check this first, daily.
wunderground.com - I need to know the weather, duh.
facebook.com - Check up on my friends.
myspace.com - ditto.
spoofee.com - check some deals
woot.com - check this at midnight for deals.
gamingforce.com - im starting to come back a little more each day.
youtube.com - it's becoming a necessity.
louisiana.edu - for various school things.


Really, that's about it.

www.youtube.com

There is so much shit to watch on that. I used to watch movies off this before they were taken down. Lots of anime to watch too, though it's poor quality. But I can't use bit torrent, so this is a nice substitute.

This place. I keep telling myself I have other, more important, things to do but I always end up here. I don't know if that's good or bad.

I also hang out at Livejournal a lot, but not nearly as much as I used to.

Lately I've been poking around Gamefaqs. I know the forums suck, but I can't help using the FAQs and guides there.

Finally, I check my Gmail several times a day, but that's a given.

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

IMDB (www.imdb.com)- I LOVE imdb. Even though most of the people on the discussion boards are "special" I just can't help but discussing movies. I'm a movie fanatic; love talking about movies and actors/actresses. I've been an active member on that site for 3 years now.

Livejournal (www.livejournal.com)- I'm mostly there for the communities. I've been on LJ since the 9th grade.

Alluc (www.alluc.org/alluc)- Umm this site is awesome. Hundreds of tv links, movie links, anime links, cartoon links w/o the hassel of downloading them. However sometimes you have to catch the links quick because some will get taken down. Most of the ones that get taken down the most are probably anime links. The ones for television/cartoons and movies stay up for a while. Check it out sometime.

Other sites:
Gmail
Pajiba
Gamingforce
Google
Rottentomatoes
Youtube

My first port of call are a couple of speedrunning sites. Then GameFAQ's (for some reason I just vote in the daily poll and leave ), and then here. Occasionally I'll pop in to the 8 Bit Theater (although It's not quite as funny as it used to be...) and DontStayIn (as part of my social life).

I was speaking idiomatically.

I haven't really had any internet addictions lately. Gamingforce was definitely an addiction 4-5 years ago. My last "addiction" was probably online poker back in 2005, but that was okay since I won a lot. I just stopped because it took too much time, but it's definitely something I want to get back into, if I could find that time again. ^^

Right now though, I don't really have any addictions. There's places I frequent, like here (though I don't even log onto Gamingforce everyday anymore). The list of sites I check out would be way too long, but basically there's at least a hundred sites that I regularly get around to visiting every few days.

If I had to say some more than others, then they would be:

Yahoo! Sports, ESPN, other sports news places ~ gotta keep up my fantasy teams.
Xanga, Facebook, LiveJournal ~ keep up with friends online, especially since it's difficult to get together these days.
slashdot, Gamasutra, Ars Technica, Tom's HW, etc. ~ nerd news and gaming news.
8-Bit Theater, VGcats, PennyArcade, etc. ~ webcomics. <3
Last.fm ~ audioscrobblin' liek wut.
Gamingforce ~ sup.

Haha, when I started I just couldn't get enough of chat rooms, instant messages, and Star Wars sites.

Also, is the person that made this thread even a regular member or was it an opportunity to advertise?

I guess my Internet addictions would be -
gamingforce ~ I find myself spending more and more time here everyday
gamespot ~ catch up on any game news that may have come out
play.com ~ see what deals they have going
sendit.com ~ see what deals that have going
and a few other forums that I spend time on.

And that is about the extent of my Internet habits as I rarely check my email, all I ever get is spam.
